His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set.
The eyes described as like doves beside streams of water, bathed and perfectly placed, reveal Jesus as supreme above multitudes, the chiefest among ten thousand. That same beauty marks Him as altogether lovely and desirable above all others. He is the Mighty One to be clung to, lived in, and worked in, with constant dependence and abiding union. Self is to be put out of sight so that He alone appears in the life. His promises never fail, and therefore they are to be held fast and borne with the whole weight of trust. They are to be tested in experience, because the hours of probation are short at best.
